Nice little unit
Reviewed by Paul. Review Posted 28/12/2009
Excellent little hard disk. Great build quality. I run XP Pro and the OS picks up the drive (once its plugged in) in only a couple of seconds. Extremely quiet. Copied a 4.5 GB file in less than 3 mins.
Very happy with it - and the price has now dropped - I paid £80 for it!
